School isn't the sole medium by which to inquire about and learn more of the world, but it's the best system we've got. Yet even still, it isn't perfect. People learn in different ways, and sitting in a classroom isn't always going to allow for optimal learning conditions. That's where I come in. By tutoring, myself and others...

Session Summaries by Mandarin Chinese Tutors

We started conjugating ar er and ir verbs then went on to begin house vocabulary. First I had him conjugate common ar er and ir verbs in sentences. When he finished we diagrammed his house and translated the furniture and rooms into Spanish to help his vocabulary. No concerns, he picked up on the conjugation really quickly.

We went over homework I left for the student over the weekend which included stem-changing verb fill in the blanks as well as ser vs estar practice. After going over her homework, I brought along note cards with interrogative words and verbs like "gustar." She is very good at conjugating and recognizing which forms to conjugate the verbs. Note card practice and sentence practice will help her get a good grasp on the meaning of commonly used verbs.

Today the student and I reviewed and practiced the direct object pronoun and indirect object pronoun. The student completed 2-3 exercises for each and we discussed their significance. We also reviewed over 100 vocabulary words! It was a great session. Next session we will be diving into the present subjunctive.

We reviewed present progressive tense, accents and pronunciation, and vocabulary. The student is taking an online course that is not the most effective for her learning needs. The assessments are a little inconsistent. For instance, the assessment on the present progressive tense was difficult because there is vocabulary that isn't taught in the previous lesson and doesn't solely grade the student's knowledge and understanding of that tense. Her scores/grades on the online course don't fully reflect her understanding and knowledge.
The student will work on lesson 4 as much as she can and leave any lessons she isn't sure about for us to go through together at our next session.

We did two sentences of a cartoon book that the student really likes. She also enjoys drawing, and I am trying to use drawing as a motivation for her to focus on Chinese learning. Given her circumstances, it seems to make more sense for her to enjoy while picking up some Chinese, rather than giving her intensive Chinese lessons. I am also thinking about teaching her Chinese with her drawings on my iPad, since now we have more colors than our old drawings with pencil and she would be more intrigued by this.
